Important Safety Precautions
Please review these important safety precautions
before you use your grill accessory.
1) NEVER LEAVE THE GRILL ACCESSORY UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
2) Ensure all tie-down wires have been removed from the burners.
3) Always use caution when operating the grill accessory in a windy area. (See INDEX: “Grilling in
Windy Conditions” for further details.)
4) Avoid wearing loose-fitting garments or long sleeves while grilling. They could ignite.
5) Never touch the grill accessory racks or immediate surrounding metal surfaces with your bare
hands while grilling.
6) Use an insulated glove or mitt when opening and operating the grill accessory.
7) The grill accessory covers must be fully removed or opened while lighting the grill accessory.
Releasing fuel into a closed grill accessory before lighting will not make it light sooner or more
efficiently. It will only risk explosion and personal injury or death. Never lean over hot grill accessory surface or look directly into the grill accessory when attempting to light.
8) Do not heat unopened food containers as pressure build-up will cause the container to explode.
9) Do not use aluminum foil to line grill accessory racks or drip pans. This will alter the airflow or
trap excessive heat in the control area and can melt knobs and ignition modules. Such damage
is specifically excluded from your warranty.
10) Never use charcoal or any other solid fuel in the grill accessory.
11) Cooking excessively fatty meats and oils will cause flare ups. Internal fires or damage caused by
them or by the grill accessory being left unattended while cooking are not covered under the
terms and conditions of our warranty.
12) Never grill without a drip pan in place if your accessory utilizes a built-in drip pan. Always ensure the drip pan is pushed all the way to the back of the grill accessory. When not correctly in
place, hot grease can leak downward and produce a fire or explosion.
13) Grease is extremely flammable. Let hot grease cool down before attempting to handle or dispose of it. The drip tray should be cleaned of grease on a regular basis.
14) Do not use the grill accessory unless a leak check has been performed on all gas connections.
(See INDEX: “Leak Testing” for further details.)
15) Never operate the grill accessory while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
16) Do not lean on side shelves and never place a load weighing more than 25 pounds on a side
shelf.
17) If any burner does not light or goes out during operation, turn off all gas control knobs and wait
five (5) minutes before attempting to re-light.

4.Re-light and check the
flame.
Lighting Instructions for All Accessories
Safety Practices
and Precautions:
warning
Read the ‘User Manual/Installation Instructions’ carefully
and completely before using
your grill or grill accessory to
reduce the risk of fire, burn
hazard or other injury.
Ensure that burner ties and all
packing materials are removed
before lighting any new
accessory.
Replacement pressure regulators and hose assemblies, must
be the type specified by Lynx.
The pressure regulator and
hose assembly supplied with
the unit must be used.
If the unit is LP, screw the
regulator into the tank and leak
check the hose and regulator
connections with a soap and
water solution before operating
the burner. Turn all knobs to
OFF then SLOWLY turn on the
gas supply valve.
Do not use any grill accessory if
you smell gas.
Match Lighting
If a burner fails to light after
several attempts, it can
be match lit. If you’ve just
attempted to light the burner
with the igniter, allow 5 minutes
for any accumulated gas to
dissipate before match lighting.
Make sure all knobs are in the
OFF position. Keep your face
as far away from the burner as
possible.
Using the manual lighting rod,
pass a lit match over the ports
of the burner. The LYNX Power
Purging the Gas Lines
At Each New Season
At the start of each new grilling
season you should remove the
cooking grates and check the
burners, venturis, orifices and
valves for obstructions.
Spiders and insects often nest
in these areas of the accessory
and can disrupt air flow, causing
damage to the accessory and
personal injury.
Also, check all hoses and
fittings for damage, abrasion,
wear and tear and repair, if
necessary, before turning the
gas on.
You should purge the gas line
of air before attempting to light
the grill accessory.
1.Make sure all grill controls
are in the “OFF” position.
2.Slowly turn on the main
gas supply.
3.Push in the control knob
for the burner furthest
from the fuel source. Using
the burner furthest from
the fuel source will completely purge the lines. It
will take several seconds
for the burner to light.
4.Hold the knob ON for
about 20 seconds to allow
the air in the system to
purge and the burner to
light
5.Wait at least 5 minutes
after shutting off the
control before attempting
to light the burners.
Burner features a lighting rod as
shown above.
Push and turn the control
knob of the burner to ‘Lite”. If
the burner does not light in 4
seconds, turn the knob off and
wait 5 minutes before attempting again.
11
Low Heat Flame

accessory feature an adjustable
low setting.
Fluctuations in gas pressure,
gas conversion and even in the
quality of the gas itself may
affect burner performance at
the “LOW” setting. It could be
either too high or too low.
12
To adjust the burner
for low setting:
►► Make sure the grill
accessory is cool.
►► Remove the grates so that
you can see the flame while
adjusting the burner.

Before You Start
warning
►► Never install this product into a combustible enclosure. Doing so could result in fire, property
damage and personal injury.
►► Never locate the accessory under a roof or overhang, in a building, garage, shed or other
such enclosed area.
►► Always maintain the required clearances from combustibles as detailed. Accessories are
designed for outdoor use only. Never use in a garage, building, shed, breezeway, or other
enclosed area. Do not use this equipment under any overhead combustible construction.
►► Installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or Natural Gas and propane Installation
Code, CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2, in Canada.
If Shipment Arrives Damaged
VISIBLE LOSS OR DAMAGE:
Be certain any visible damage to the carton is noted on freight bill or express receipt and signed by
the person making delivery.
FILE CLAIM FOR DAMAGES IMMEDIATELY, regardless of extent of damage.
CONCEALED LOSS OR DAMAGE:
If damage is unnoticed until the accessory is unpacked, notify the transportation company or carrier
immediately and file a “concealed damage” claim with them. This should be done within (15) days
of the date delivery is made to you. Be sure to hold on to the container for inspection. We cannot
assume responsibility for damage or loss incurred in transit. (See INDEX: “Obtaining Service from Lynx” for
further details.)
Important Notes
Where’s the Wind?
When selecting a suitable
location, consider important
factors such as exposure to the
wind and foot-traffic patterns.
If you have a freestanding
grill, position it so the prevailing wind blows into the front
control panel (at your back
when grilling), supporting the
proper front-to-rear airflow.
Built-in accessories located
in areas with prevailing winds
should be protected by a wind
barrier.
How Long
is Your Run?
Keep all gas supply lines as
short as possible because
gas lines lose pressure over
distance and with each elbow
and tee that is added. This drop
in pressure affects accessory
performance. (See INDEX: “Gas
Supply Line Runs” for further details.)
Are You “On-the-Level”?
Proper leveling during installation is critical. An accessory
that is out of level will cause
erratic burner combustion and
inefficient, uneven heating. A
carpenter’s spirit level should be
used to level the accessory both
front-to-back and side-to-side.
If the floor is uneven or has
a decided slope, re-leveling
may be required each time you
move a freestanding unit.
15
Built-In Installations:
Lynx built-in accessories are
intended for installation in a
built-in enclosure constructed
of non-combustible materials.
The accessory drops into the
opening shown in the cutout
detail drawing and hangs from
its counter-top trim. A deck is
not required to support it from
the bottom.
Pay special attention to the
provisions shown for gas line
hook-up. (See INDEX: “Cut-out
Dimensions for Built-in Grills &
Accessories”)
Installation provisions may be
made for the Power Burner
installation. The Power Burner
cooking height may be reduced
to better accommodate large
cooking pots. Clearances to
combustible material must be
maintained as outlined below.
No combustible material shall
be used in the construction of
a counter top using a recessed
application.
16
The enclosure should have
ventilation holes to prevent gas
build-up in the event of a leak.
The deck ledges and counter
should be flat and level. (Refer
to ANSI Z21.58 Standard for
Outdoor Cooking Gas Appliances, Section 1.7 Enclosures
For Self Contained LP-Gas
Supply Systems or local codes
for additional information.)
The grill accessory may be
powered from either a 120 volt,
60 hertz, 15 amp GFI certified
outlet installed by a qualified
electrician OR it may be
powered directly from your Lynx
Grill transformer power supply.
When a Lynx grill is not
available or if the grill is
not located close enough
to the grill a Lynx LASK
(Lynx Accessory Switch Kit)
is available as an optional
purchase.
Clearance to Combustible Materials:
Minimum clearance from
the sides and back of the
accessory to adjacent combustible construction below the
top of unit are 12” from the
sides and back.
Dégagement minimal entre
les parois latérales et l’arrière

Do not use this appliance
under overhead combustible
surfaces.
Ne pas utiliser cet appareil

Gas & electric Connections
Gas Plumbing
warning
Never connect a gas line directly to the accessory. A pressure regulator must
be installed on all gas equipment. All local codes require it and Lynx supplies
the correct regulator with your accessory. Removing or failing to install the
pressure regulator can result in fire and serious personal injury and will void
the warranty.
The accessory is factory set to
use either propane (LP) or
natural gas (NAT). It is critical
that the gas you use matches
that which the accessory was
set up for. You can verify that by
checking the rating plate.
The rating plate is located on
the heat
shield
behind
the front
panel.
Ensure that the gas supplied
meets with the minimum
pressure requirements.
Do not operate the accessory on
any gas other than that for which
the accessory has been set.

and refer to “INDEX: Gas
Supply Line Runs” for
allowable run distances.
Failure to meet these
minimum requirements may
reduce performance of the
accessory and any other
appliances running on that
supply line.
►► Always keep supply line
runs as short as possible.
(See INDEX: “Gas Supply line
runs”)
►► A gas shut-off valve must
be installed in an easily
accessible location by a
qualified plumber.
17
►► Keep any threading
compound off of the first
two pipe threads to avoid
having any small pieces of
compound break loose and
clog a burner valve or
orifice. Do not put sealant
on any male end of flare
fittings..
Keep
last two
threads
clean
►►

►►
For built-in installations, it is
recommended that any flexible
pipe used be kept as short as
possible. (See INDEX: “Gas Connections” for typical permanent hook up.)
Permanently plumbed LP connections, such as those in line
with a bulk cylinder, require
a 4/11 regulator. (Lynx P/N
30781)
Converting
for Fuel Type
After changing all of the orifices
in the conversion kit you must
make sure the correct regulator
is used. If you are using a 4/11
Convertible regulator, ensure
that it is set for the correct fuel.
The correct fuel type will be
abbreviated at the end of the
plunger. Remove the cap and
check the plunger. If, needed,
pull the plunger from the cap,
flip it over and re-attach it to
the cap. Then re-insert the cap
into the regulator and tighten it
using a 7/8 inch wrench.
LP Gas
Accessories set up for LP gas
come equipped with an LP
hose/ regulator assembly for
connection to a standard 20 lb.
LP cylinder. (Type 1).
All fittings necessary to attach
the assembly to the accessory
are included.
LP cylinder with type 1 valve
connection
18
Never connect an unregulated
gas line to the grill.
When exchanging your cylinder
for a refill, exchange only for
a Type 1 20lb cylinder with an
over-fill protection device.
Never use a cylinder with a
damaged valve.
A dented or rusty LP cylinder
may be hazardous and should
be avoided. If in doubt, have it
checked by your LP supplier.
Always check for leaks after
every LP cylinder change. (See
INDEX: “Leak Testing” for further
details.)
Always shut off the LP-gas
supply at the cylinder when the
accessory is not in use.
Cylinders must be stored
outdoors in a well-ventilated area out of the reach of
children. If your accessory is
stored indoors, the LP cylinder
must be stored outside.
LP Connections
Make sure the LP cylinder valve
is fully closed. It is possible for
the valve to be open without
releasing gas but, as soon
as you start connecting the
regulator, gas will leak from the
connection.
Insert the regulator inlet into
the cylinder valve and turn the
black coupler clockwise until
the coupler is hand tight. Do
not over-tighten this connection.
To disconnect the coupler, first
make sure the main cylinder
valve is turned off. Grasp
the coupler and turn counter
clockwise. Always leak-test the
connection after refilling or
exchanging LP cylinders. (See
INDEX: “Leak Testing” for further
details.)

Electrical Connections
Optional Electrical Kits
In addition to the accessory burner kits, Lynx also manufactures 3 specialized electrical kits that you
may purchase for your accessory, depending upon how it will be installed. Each electrical kit ships
with an instructional sheet for assembly. Assembly instructions and schematics/drawings can also be
found on our website at WWW.LYNXGRILLS.COM.
►► LASK: Lynx Accessory
Switch Kit
This switch and transformer kit allows independent control of
a Lynx accessory burner without connection to a grill. The kit
contains a transformer and mounting bracket as well as a switch
assembly with a mounting plate. The kit also contains a wiring
harness to adapt an L series accessory to an M series switch and
transformer.
►► LAK Lynx Electrical
Adapter Kit
M series Lynx grills and accessories feature a new wiring harness
design that simplifies accessory installation. The LAK Lynx Electrical
Adapter Kit is needed only when installing a grill and accessory that
are not manufactured under the same series (M or L series & prior).
This one kit connects both an M series Lynx Grill to an earlier Lynx
accessory as well as an earlier Lynx Grill to an M series accessory.
Each kit contains two wire harnesses. Only one harness will be
used depending on the units being installed
►► LPEK Lynx Power
Extension Kit
Installation requires an outdoor
120VAC 15A GFI (Ground Fault
Interrupter) electrical outlet
adjacent to the accessory.
The GFI outlet features an
internal breaker that reduces
shock hazard. This type of
outlet should be installed by
a qualified electrician either
inside the island enclosure
for built-in units, or near the
location where a free-standing
unit will be used.
For built-in accessories, the
supplied 12V transformer is
connected to the accessory
during installation.
20
The Lynx Power Extension Kit provides 12 feet of additional wire
between your Lynx Grill and accessory burner.
If the electrical system fails to
operate, a connection may have
come loose in shipping or the
GFI may have tripped, requiring
a reset. See the Troubleshooting section for more details.
Accessory Light Switch (LASK).
Disconnect the 4-pin connector
on the grill and connect those
plugs to the mating plugs on
your accessory. (See Index “Electri-
Connecting the Wiring
Important note: If using
multiple Lynx accessories
with the Control Illumination/Blue LED’S, a connector
for this purpose is built into
the accessory wiring. This will
allow you to use the light switch
on your Lynx grill to actuate
the power on more than one
accessory.
The accessory electrical
harnesses are designed to
provide power for both ignition
and lighting. While ignition is
controlled at the accessory,
lighting is controlled at the grill.
You can control lighting at the
accessory by installing the Lynx
cal Connections)
Testing the Installation
Before turning the gas supply
on, check for proper installation
using the following test:
1.Plug the transformer back
into the receptacle.
2.Push in the gas control knob
on your accessory and watch
the igniter. It should glow
bright and steady.
3.Turn on the light switch on
the grill. Both the grill and
the grill accessory lights
should operate together.
This indicates a proper
assembly.
Turn the gas on to all
appliances.
4.Perform a leak test if you
have not done so since
plumbing the unit.
5.Check all burners for proper
ignition. Refer to the Lighting
Instructions for Side Burners.
Leak Testing
danger!
To prevent fire or explosion
hazard, DO NOT smoke or
allow any potential source
of ignition (sparks, electrical
arcing, etc) in the area while
performing a leak test. Leak
tests should be conducted
outdoors only. Never conduct
a leak test using fire or flame.
Leak Test Procedure:
1.Create a soapy solution
of 1 part soap and 3
parts water.
2.Confirm that all control
knobs are in the off
position.
3.Turn on the fuel supply.
For natural gas, turn the
valve handle 1/4 turn to
align with the gas flow.
4.For LP, turn the cylinder
valve knob counter
clockwise one full
rotation.
5.Apply the soap solution
generously by paint brush
or squirt bottle on all connections and fittings.
6.If bubbles appear to
“grow” on any of the connections, you have a gas
leak. IMMEDIATELY turn
off the gas supply.
Fixing a Gas Leak
1.Shut off the gas supply
2.Turn all grill controls to
the “ON” position to
purge the grill of any gas
build-up, then turn the
controls back “OFF”.
3.Wash off the soapy
solution with cold water
and dry.
4.Tighten the loose joint,
or replace the faulty part
with manufacturer-recommended replacement
parts.
5.DO NOT attempt to
repair the LP cylinder
valve if it is damaged.
The only way to safely
resolve a damaged
cylinder is to REPLACE IT.
6.Repeat the leak test to
ensure that no leaks are
present.
